The Standard Deep brood box and contents can be upgraded to an Extra Deep, 14x12 brood box. The Standard Deep brood box is by far the most commonly used so only choose the Extra Deep if this is a specific requirement.

To make it easy we have carefully designed this kit to include all the essential items the beginner needs to start keeping bees - just choose a preferred glove size. The production of honey would not be expected in the first year so additional boxes and equipment are not needed to start - get them when the bees need them.
